Play Games

If you have opportunities for your class to work on the computer individually or in groups of two or three, make use of the host of fraction games available online. Additionally, there are numerous board games, pie puzzles and card games that you can make or purchase.

Why not create a fraction game for the playground or gym class? Your class can be divided up into fractions and the playground can be sectioned out into fractions with different activities to be performed within each of the sections.

Draw, Rhyme and Sing!

Your students can draw fraction pictures of orange slices, write fraction stories about sharing a pizza and act out fraction scenarios with measuring cups. Make up humorous rhymes (e.g., 'Our family has six people, and mom made us a pie. She cut it in twelve pieces. We each got two - oh, my!'). Listen to songs about fractions. Such activities appeal to the various learning styles of your students and can help reinforce the lessons.
